This was the trip of a lifetime! We saw many sights and covered a lot of ground. The Northern Lights were a bucket list item for me, and we were lucky to see them on the second night in Buðir. The hotels were great, and we had zero issues checking in. I do have a few suggestions: 1. Double check your itinerary. The first one we received had us driving from Höfn to Reykjavik (about 7 hours) and back in a day for the ice cave excursion. When I pointed it out, Guide to Iceland was very responsive and sent a corrected itinerary. 2. One of the sightseeing excursions was at Jökulsárlón, followed by our overnight stay in Höfn, about an hour further. The following day, we returned to Jökulsárlón for the ice cave excursion before our trip back to Reykjavik. This added some additional driving that we felt could have been avoided, especially since we had such a long day of driving to start with. Höfn was very charming, but a lot of places were closed, and we were too tired to really enjoy it. 3. The itinerary was full of amazing things to see, but we had to pick and choose, due to the limited daylight. There was not enough time to enjoy anything between Jökulsárlón and Reykjavik on our way back, due to the long drive. Overall, Guide to Iceland is a fantastic company to work with, and they did a great job putting together a memorable experience. I would highly recommend them.

Guide to Iceland is an absolutely incredible service. I did the two week self-drive tour around ring road, the most incredible two week adventure of my life, the trip of a lifetime. GTI planned my entire drive and all stops to make for a seamless, stress free trip. Although on some days it’s impossible to achieve everything on the itinerary, this is only due to the lack of daylight hours in winter and is by no means GTI’s fault, its Iceland’s fault for being such a beautiful, tranquil, picturesque country. I ran into some small issues with not receiving self-check in information for some of accomodations, but GTI was helpful and prompt with their replies and had excellent communication. I also had issues with external tour companies, as well as cancelled tours due to the weather, but again GTI was quick to help and assist with communication with these companies. They communicated in a kind, professional manner and exceeded my expectations. 10/10 would recommend! Iceland is the most beautiful country I have been lucky enough to visit, the people and kind and the scenery is unmatched. Even the crazy weather is unique to Iceland and is incredible to see itself.

This was an action-packed itinerary, but it was worth every minute of sleep I lost over the 5 days we were there. Simply incredible sights, wonderful and knowledgeable tour guides, and memories we will cherish forever. All we had to do was show up-Guide to Iceland did the rest! Highly recommend this 5-day itinerary so you can see a lot in a short amount of time. We will be back again and will use Guide to Iceland for our planning!

The tour guide had excellent driving skills and was very knowledgeable about Iceland history! I enjoyed touring the blue crystal ice cave, the glacier lagoon, Black sand beaches, and the Diamond beach! I had a GREAT vacation time during my 2 day adventure with booking with Guide to Iceland!
